the four of us
koped this those were the days... entry from melissa ang. seems like today's reminscing day. just talked to kianyong on msn, and we sort of caught up. after havent seen him in a few months, think he sort of changed also, and it was really nice reminscing and basically just talking crap with an old friend. shawn ong is still sick, but i think he's better, and he knows now not to hyperventilate bah. ^^ haha miss the three of them loads.


those were the days..

those were the days..
i walked 2km plus home from school because i missed the schoolbus.
i joined many clubs just for the heck of it. maths, arts, social studies, science, chinese orchestra..
i had a crush on my senior the asst head prefect.
i was made asst head prefect the year after but another girl replaced him as the head prefect. -_-"
i had a group of great schoolmates who met everyday after school to prowl the playgrounds around school.
i followed him to the bus stop everyday after we leave the playgrounds.
oh! when i had love letters. we dont get those anymore, dont we?

those were the days..
i didnt join nanyang girls because you had to cut your hair and only after entering rv i realised you had to as well.
i thought the school uniform was cool, but metal buttons hurt.
we had swimming for pe lessons.
student council was my life.
the bass clarinet was my life too.
wanton mee with huiqi under her block were breaths of fresh air from school.
i reached a period of life so horrendous i will never relive it again.

those were the days..
i could wake up at 645am and still make it to school on time.
i laughed till i cried almost every other day because of shawn and yong.
when mel, shafinas and shamini and i were the epitome of racial harmony SIA. haha.
lawry! and cheeyong and everyone else made me feel i was part of the school.
birthday bash meant beating the crap out of that lucky person.
4e1 could sing the birthday song out loud twenty times consecutively in graduation ceremony and get away with it.
where we studied at bb east macs and school library almost every week.
helmet head and bastard chia and tamagot chee were hilarious.

those were the days..
i met some of the best people i could ever have met, who made me who i am today.
my feet screamed for help everyday when work ended.
i went for supper with colleagues and we would sit for hours eating oyster omelette and frog leg porridge.
i realised how immature and young i was, and seeing life for real for the first time.
i thought chefs were cool. i still do.

those were the days..
i realise i like 2-hour schooldays and tutorials in aircon classrooms.
holiday horror in bangkok made me think only of a few people to call.
raphael lee liked snoopy and made us use snoopy pictures during lessons.
azhar loved the audio quality on moogle's vids so much he reminded me about it everytime he saw me.
i made two big mistakes in my life, and have since grown up from them.
i felt the happiest, the saddest, the most devastated, the most proud of myself, the most worried, the most everything everr.

this is me now:
an older but wiser me. and i like who i am now. =)
tears may come easier, but i know there are people nearby who wipe them away for me.
with friends who love me for who i am, and not try to make me someone im not.


this is probably just an entry i can look back again, when i get a little bit more old. things, little bits and pieces i rmb about my life so far.

with school ending in one week, suddenly the fact that i might not see some of my classmates anymore hit me again. yet, ipp is something to really look forward to. people have been wondering about the next 6 months; suddenly we're all leaving block a. sort of something that needs getting used to.

will probably post up a ms01 post soon. =)

velda.
